Abstract (en)
A modular structure for energy absorption in head impacts on vehicle interiors, constituted of a set of deformable hollow bodies (1 and 2) which have an open end section and are arranged in interconnected independent clusters. The hollow bodies in each cluster are joined by means of flexible bridges (3) running between the open ends of adjacent bodies. The clusters are provided around their outline with flexible half bridges (5) provided with mutual connection means (6, 7). <IMAGE>
